Perfect for a one-on-one, Whiskey Town isn't overbearing, a dimly lit but polished neighborhood bar. Sit bar-side for best results: you'll get ready access to the finest bartenders this side of town. You're here for whiskey, so relax with a glass. Feeling excitable? Go for a pickle back shot. While the spicy pickle backs here - and the crowd - are less lively than Whiskey Tavern's, I still love the Whiskey dynasty. Don't forget to play a board game while you're here. If you're on good terms with your playmate, hit up the photo booth for a souvenir; it's couple-friendly, and prints two photos per purchase.

Chill little bar that I had a fun couple hours at. Great music (90s, top 40, pop, dance), energetic vibe, fun-loving youths. Free popcorn on quieter nights, although "quiet" here is still "crowded" elsewhere. I went on a Thursday night, so it wasn't as "greasy" as it would be on the weekends, greasy being how I describe sleazy fist-pumpers and duck-faces. I don't know if I'd return intentionally, but I'd recommend it on a downtown bar crawl.

Some lady friends and I rolled up to Whiskey Town the other night after a long evening of work. Highlight #1 - Dance music galore - we were pretty much the 80's go-go dancers of the bar. We stood on the booths and were never asked to get down. Who doesn't love rocking out to the Jackson 5? Props to the DJ. Wouldn't have had a problem dancing on the dance floor but there wasn't room it was so packed. Highlight #2 - Wrangling Coors Lights from actual frat boys. You can purchase a cooler of 6 cans of beer for $25 - sooo easy to share, bonus for everyone really. Whiskey shot and beer combos $7-$10 - yum! Lowlight #1 - Photo booth wasn't working. Lowlight #2 - Right around the stroke of 12:30 it became so unbearably packed you instantly wanted to climb up the wall and open a window. Insight #1 - Booths are the way to go, if you have to go on a busy night get there around 11PM or earlier to claim your spot. The tables are so so so tiny they only hold about 4 drinks but helpful nonetheless. Insight #2 - Bourbon drinkers won't find anything out of the ordinary on their list and prices were about $10 - $13 for the stuff I wanted to drink which I thought was a little high especially for a place serving cans of beer in cozies.

Please fire your DJ. He doesn't care about what the people want. Made multiple requests with no response. Otherwise, nice bar.

From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with champagne, which immediately set the tone for a special evening. Our server, Daniel, was beyond amazing. He was warm, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making our anniversary meaningful. It never felt forced just thoughtful, polished hospitality. The team went above and beyond when we brought our wedding cake (which had been frozen for a year). Not only did they accommodate it without hesitation, they helped decorate and present it beautifully you would have thought it had been baked that same day. It was such a touching moment for us, and they handled it with care and enthusiasm. As for the food: incredible. The steak tartare was perfectly balanced and beautifully prepared. The tuna was fresh and vibrant. And the Beef Wellington... honestly one of the best I've had in New York City. Perfectly cooked, rich, elegant, and absolutely worthy of a celebration dinner. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance: romantic, warm, refined but relaxed. It felt special without being stiff. If you're looking for a place to celebrate something meaningful, this is it. We will absolutely return.

I wouldn't return and I should of read reviews before I went I will not return. The scallops were delicious and the not colada cocktail but at that price point to not being given my food and proper service is a shame.The fish was OK and the sticky toffee was delicious.

Awesome selection of menu, and drink best with a group gathering. Absolutely great vibe and easy-going, fun atmosphere.

Attention: present services are acceptable.

I found the hodgepodge of old-timey decor to be a bit kitsch, but to each their own. I came with a group on a weeknight with no reservation. We were seated immediately on a high wood table. Although the bar wasn't busy (there were plenty of empty spaces, small groups scattered throughout the area), the service was quite slow. The server was inattentive and took a while to take our orders. We had to ask her for water three times, searching for her across the room in an attempt to catch her attention. She was a bit absent during the two-ish hours we were there. On the bright side, the drinks were fairly good. I ordered this strawberry vodka cocktail topped with whole mint. I'm wary of vodka for its harsh, unpleasant taste, but I found this drink to actually be very pleasant, tasing like a fruit smoothie you'd get from a local juicer. There was also a burgundy drink served on a wine glass that tasted like the holidays. I liked that one quite a bit. Overall, Oscar Wilde was an okay experience. It's certainly a bar for a certain type of crowd, and the service was lacking, but maybe we went on a bad night. Maybe if you're lucky, you'll be served better than we were.

Always a solid choice, though it could have been a bit colder. The bartenders were very nice and attentive, and the place clearly has a strong group of regulars. There was a friendly, familiar energy in the room that made it feel welcoming right away. Once my friend arrived, I tried "The Greatest Espresso Martini" and asked to swap the vodka for bourbon. They were very accommodating, and the drink turned out delicious. Rich, smooth, and good enough that I ordered a second. The music and lighting both hit the right balance, making it an easy, comfortable place to settle in for the night.

Unfortunately, our server only heard that 5 of us wanted afternoon tea, and one of the tiers of food was smaller than the others. We also had to pay extra for additional tea, which we were fine with, but service was severely lacking throughout. Our server didn't check up on us, and seemed to want us to leave quickly after dropping off the check. We would have been happy to pay the $65 each for afternoon tea, but it wasn't worth it and frankly, I was agitated by the whole ordeal by the time I left. We were also disappointed by the food items (as they were lacking) and nothing about this was like other experiences we had with other afternoon teas. I can't in good faith recommend this place, nor do I see myself coming back after the atrocious service we experienced.
